Yes. Yes it is.
Reminds me of Garrett Wang. He was introducing a Star Trek panel, a TNG panel if I remember correctly, and was talking to the audience a bit about his relationship with Star Trek. Said he watched it growing up but in his teenage years it phased out. Then he heard of TNG and turned it on. First episode? Code of Honor and he said “Okay. No thanks.” Cut to a few years later and he sees TNG is on. Why not check it out, can’t be as bad as it was before? It’s Code of Honor again. Cut again to a couple years after that. He has an audition for Voyager coming up and he decides to watch some Star Trek for reference. Finds it on a channel and starts watching it. Code of Honor.
He ended the story by saying he credits Code of Honor for getting him the job because if he saw any other episode he’d be too much of a fanboy.
Funny how she also wrote the worst StarGate episode.
Because it was an even worse remake
How many shows does StarGate have
Four AFAIK
5? SG1, Infinity, Atlantis, SGU, Origins. Though Infinity isn’t cannon, and Origins isn’t really a show.
Forgot about that animated show. I only count SG-1, Atlantis and Universe as canon and I only like SG-1 and Atlantis personally.
Second season of SGU is really quite good, I honestly prefer it in tone to the attempts at “darker” stories in Atlantis.
Ok yeah that one definitely wasn’t great. I usually don’t skip it though just because the utterly backwards logic in it is pretty funny.
“I swear, it’s not that ridiculous all the time…”
During TNG S1E4 Code of honor: “Yeah, it looks bad, but there’s an important progressive message in there somewhere.”
Enterprise pilot episode: “Ok, so Rick Burman had a bit of a horny streak, but it gets better.”
Star Trek was always horny.
bit of a horny streak
Frank Herbert has entered the chat.
“Ok, let’s try another TNG episode then. Ooh look, this one is about a ghost!”
Damn, I thought nothing could get worse than Beverly the ghost diddler bust I guess I was wrong.
It’s the episode that introduced Kahless and Surak to Star Trek lore.
Damn really? Alright, respect.
“I want to help you, George Washington? Even your dreams are square.”
Probably actually Bizarro George Washington, then.
Evidence that the musical episode is only like the seventh goofiest premise in Star Trek. And I’m not even counting anything from Lower Decks.
Actually i kinda like this episode and its line about good and evil being the same. Its an overall goofy episode but still has something to it
All great sci fi has its moments of levity. People who can’t or won’t accept that, I don’t know what to tell ya.
I’m all for it personally
It was the 60’s what do you want from them???
I mean this is pretty true of any Star Trek series. DS9 from the 90s probably has the widest gulf between grim and goofy episodes; in one episode there’s a war criminal who gloats about committing genocide and getting away with it, and another episode from the same season has the cast playing hopscotch.
“Alamarein”
dies of cringe
They never really resolved the tribble issue. I really want to know if they had to call in the Klingons to help get rid of them again after that episode
Isn’t it funny that the events of modern day are hundreds of years past for the members of Starfleet, yet all of their cultural references and entertainment options revolve around our period?
Haha, and sometimes they even try to throw in some made up one to address that, and it sounds goofy.
“Famous leaders, such as Alexander the Great, Winston Churchill, and Xergon the Merciful!”
REAL SIMULATED EVIL LINCOLN IS BACK!
that’s right.
